Test Cooking

So i am about halfway through my experience as a recipe tester for America’s Test Kitchen and this has been quite the experience. I will compare recipe testing to being a baker, since everything is incredibly precise and the littlest variation of a recipe can alter the outcome. I haven’t always been a fan of baking, but being a recipe tester is amazing. Knowing that the final variation is the product of hugely numerous test runs. For example: my first two weeks there i made approximately 20 coffee cakes. Yes, that is the correct number, they are not messing around when it comes to testing. Good thing I like coffee cake. I like the precision that is involved in the tests, so when the final recipes are published, we all know that the absolute best recipe is being released for the public. It’s a great feeling to be involved in an organization that puts so much effort into creating delicious food.

More to come…
